Could Someone explain the twist at the end of Far Cry 2

far-cry-2

I've finally completed Far Cry 2.

One of the final missions involves me going to pick up a case of diamonds for the Jackal.
When I get there, I find all my old buddies there waiting to gun me down.

  • why do all my buddies suddenly betray me?
  • how come all my buddies from act 1 have come back from the dead?
  • why have they come back from the dead just to screw me over?

I couldn't find any explaination for this anywhere in the game.

Your act 1 buddies aren't really dead, they are classified as 'Missing' if you look at your buddy information.

Jackal gave you a suitcase of diamonds to bribe the border guards so the refugees could escape. Your buddies betray you because they want the diamonds to pay for their own escape out of Bowa-Seko.
